As usual, the RS models from Audi adorn the front, a honeycomb grille and huge air intakes for cooling the high-revving V8 up to 8,500 trips. 331 kW (450 hp) of the naturally aspirated engine with a displacement of 4.2 liters. Enough force to make the sprint RS4 Avant in 4.7 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h, optional to have a top speed of 280 km / h.
